234. Johannes Fite
"Fite" is an Americanization of the German name "Vogt," meaning "bird". The two names sound alike.
He emigrated in 1749 & arrived on 28 Sep on "Ann", & then is supposed to have been married to Catharine, still in Sep. There are no single Catharines listed in the passenger list for the ship Johannes came over on; no Cunninghams either. I'm guessing they knew each other in Germany & Catharine came over first.
